A new little world.

The opening door has its own little world hidden behind its wooden surface.

And as if guarding it, it prevented us from entering it.

It wouldn't take long before the door would open itself, showing the hidden interior to us, however.

Greeting me and the elves with a loud creaking sound, the door opened up a way.

Entering the home, the two elves followed me.

A sensation of warmness invaded my feelings. It was cozy and warm inside.

Isn't that a good thing, now.

This home, it'll surely make a good shelter for me.

Beneath my new shelter, there was an old man, plus two elves.

Disturbing people.

That's how I'd like to refer to them.

Weren't they disturbing me, after all?

I kill the two elves first, then I deal with the old man.

I glanced over my left shoulder and saw him.

Meanwhile, I don't think he saw me.

Musta been too old.

He was old, that was for sure. But was he senile at the same time? Not quite sure about that.

Maybe he's just as tired as I am. That'd explain him not giving me any mind.

Anyway,

He was resting behind his small table, in a sitting position.

Running a simulation of how it'd all unfold, I could only smile.

Killing him would prove easy.

Oh, but, hey, why'd I kill the old man, though?

I don't have any motive, do I?

❮Head to the old man's place: 1/1❯

I stepped inside, "I'm allowing myself in."

❮New instructions: Keep company to the old man up until he decides on helping the Player. 0/1❯

Uh…

Come again?

Head to the old man's place, right?

Makes sense, that must be this old creature's dwelling.

When did the quests even got replaced or changed?

Well, well, not important for now.

Thinking I'd deal with that moments later, I tried to as sneakily as possible peer over my left shoulder ro spot them correctly--After which, I could only sigh and smile.

I used [ Mana Perception ] instead.

Waving in the air getting the writings gone, I got deeper into this little cozy place.

I already had something on the go, after all.

They were just behind me.

Both Calming and Angry.

Their business couldn't wait any longer--Or rather, it wouldn't.

From where they stood, they had me cornered.

They only needed to buckle down to it, and that'd be a done deal.

And the old man, from behind his coffee table, sipped on the content of his cup.

Sip~

Quite the loud sound, at that.

He didn't seem disturbed in the least by his ludicrously loud sipping sound, for some reason.

On the other side of this casual dwelling, I and the elves were getting ready.

"Activate."

Calming calmly stated.

Holding a sharp-looking sheet in his between two fingers, he began his chanting.

Let the battle begin.

… They have to 'capture me,' right?

I better hurry, now. You never know what trick they have up their sleeve.

There'll be no pity for you guys.

I glanced at Angry. From the side, he entered a battle stance. He was ready to bounce at me at any moment.

These guys … they were prepared. Too bad for them I won't go down easily.

Calming's chanting was most likely completed.

Regulating my breathing I sharpened my senses.

And it unfolds.

Facing them, I showed my weak side.

My weak looking turned itself to them..

And that'd lure them in attacking me, I was sure.

I can see.

I can fight.

And it began right this instant.

Without missing a second, my body was propelled onward.

The sheet was propelled onward too.

Piercing through the air, it rushed to me.

Its speed was bewildering.

Nothing to fear, though.

Unwilling to repeat my past mistakes, I tried to get a hold of Angry, too.

Taking a quick glance to the side, I could still see him.

Waiting for the right moment, he surely was concentrating.

Judging from his personality and behavior so far, I wouldn't have expected that of the man.

The piercing runic sheet abruptly came to a stop.

It was as if it'd just hit an invisible wall, right behind my back.

I was still propelling myself onward.

Angry stepped in.

It was his turn.

"Hah!"

Bouncing towards me, as I'd just expected, he took out a rope from behind his back.

Their teamwork was great ... I think. Probably. Well, I'm not one to talk since I barely have any living experience at all.

However, still, they seemed to be doing well, to say the least.

I mentioned they had me cornered.

Yes, I was cornered.

Or rather, I would have been.

Had they been good enough at regulating information, they'd have me cornered like a rat.

There was one detail they'd neglected.

One detail was being neglected, yes.

And thanks to that, I was safe.

Or rather, should I say they were just ignorant of one thing.

I wasn't weak.

All of this I'm describing is just the matter of one second or so. I was propelled onward and finally got where I needed to get.

Resting on the counter in front of me, my eyes darted. There was a knife. And as knives were blades (probably), blades were swords.

Me, I inherited strong swordsmanship.

Too easy.

Way too easy.

I grinned.

The detail they'd been neglecting was just the following:

Outside the house, they followed me.

Following me, they'd be silent. Very very silent, yes. Not a sound was to be heard--Dealing with a normal person, that is.

Silence? It was very very chatty, you know.

The two of them? They spoke, whispering.

They talked and talked, making sure I wouldn't hear anything of their chatting time.

But now, being as talkative as they'd been, eventually, they spoke too much.

Indeed, they talked about the moment of right now.

Their plan of action. How would it all unfold? I knew.

Thankfully, I could hear. My senses were sharp. My hearing was one of my senses. And [ Mana Perception ] was one of my skills.

That's funny, 'cause, they wanted to capture me, but...

They already failed.

After grabbing one of the knives on the rack before me, with a quick bent of my back, I made myself face the ground.

My hands joined my feet in landing on the ground.

Like a slithering snake, I sneakily slid on my right side.

A brightening light.

That's what I'd been waiting for.

I knew it wouldn't last long before it--

And behold! The runes written on the sheet went alight.

I shut my eyelids down with strength and power.

Light is not to land on my pupils, no.

A blinding light was supposed to be emitted right now.

Argh. Even with my eyes being shut, I can see the light even though it's faint.

Thud!

Angry hopped on the wooden floor.

His eyes were also shut.

He didn't want to go blind either, it seemed.

Into his mind, drawn from his calculations, I must've been blinded way too much by their puny trick.

He only had to act accordingly and pick, harvest, collect me like a little tiny fruit that'd have lost his way, ending up resting on the ground, stray and forfeited

With a quick movement of his hands, he tried to grip me, only to find himself grabbing in the air.

They schemed their plan--And I schemed mine.

Hmph.

Die, now.

❮The passive skill [Hoyathu Style] has been acquired.❯

❮The Player has reached the level 35.❯

He hadn't gripped me. He gripped the air.

And me? I gripped my knife.

I wasn't where I was supposed to be.

I grinned showing my white teeth.

So I guess I really am strong.

Coming back at him with the knife in one hand I went for his heart.

Bye, Angry.

Have a good night.
